Pros

The People are friendly and willing to help. It is a large company with the resources of a large international carrier. Work from home in a remote capacity is available& a very good aspect to the job . They offer webinar training that interesting and informative for job specific tasks. New Home office is modern/upscale. BENEFITS are good, Very solid PTO is the best part about AIG. 401 k match.

Cons

ESSENTIALLY there are NO merit raises or annual increases which is very disappointing for a carrier of this size and causes LOW morale. Additionally AIG has an Unstable work environment--- We have had multiple downsizing occurrences over the past 10 years. We never know who is next here so basically its a one day at a time life here. Senior Executives leaving and turning over is too much and creates & fosters an atmosphere of instability & lack of direction. Actual job training and direction is average at best. If management does not like you ( personally) you are not going to be offered any chances to move up or get promoted. Pension was eliminated. AIG is going to Artificial intelligence which implies more job cuts to come. Scary to contemplate.
